Question

What do you think of my intro for my essay?

There are several problems that affect the world today, and overpopulation is one of them. “Overpopulation is an undesirable condition where the number of existing human population exceeds the carrying capacity of Earth” (“Overpopulation: Causes, Effects and Solutions”). Overpopulation is the most significant global crisis facing humanity in the twenty-first century, without getting population growth under control, there will be poverty, food and water shortages.

Answer 1

Save the source of your quote as a footnote. Are you going to summarize how to get population growth under control?

Answer 2

No. I was going to summarize how poverty, food and water shortages cause population growth

Answer 3

"poverty, food and water shortages cause population growth"

Poverty, food and water shortages do NOT cause population growth.
